Lyrics Why Should I Hang Around? - Big Maceo, Tampa Red, Big Maceo, Tampa Red, Alfred Elkins

Why Should I Hang Around?

I just don’t know, what’s this all about?
What is it all about, boys?
I just don’t know, what’s this all, all about?
The woman I love, is tryin' to put me out
She said she didn’t want me
Why should I hang around?
Hey, why should I hang around?
And that if I hang around, I would be jail house bound
I love that woman, more than she will ever know
Yes, I love her
Hey baby, more than you will ever know
But if you drive me away, I won’t be back no more
I stole that woman, stole her from my best friend
Yeah, hee, from my best friend
But that old fool’s so darn lucky
He’s 'bout to get her back again
